Batman POV

I was surveying the area of the area of the explosion, I was on patrol when I got the call about Lukes house exploding. It completely destroyed the house, all of Lukes possessions were completely charred, burnt and ash, everything he possessed gone. The nearby houses were damaged a bit form it, but mainly unharmed, which was more lucky then Luke

When I first arrived on scene, I had to scan the area to find Lukes in the middle of the room, he was badly hurt and had sever burns. He lost a left arm at the elbow, his legs were shredded to bits so much as I could see bones and a bunch of metal pieces embedded in his chest. His face was badly damaged as well, mainly his skin was gone and his left jaw was exposed

After that the ambulance and other authorities finally arrived, the rest of the JL just arrived from their respective areas. Superman isn't here as he picked up the ambulance that held Luke and flew to the closeted hospital for him. Right now I was scanning using my Detective Mode to scan the area, there I found multiple evidence of someone rigging a bomb

"What do you have," Flash asked as he zipped by him

"The explosion originated here, near the kitchen," Batman said,"it was a low-yield homemade device, but effective."

He scans further, isolating traces of different chemicals. A list appears in his display: Ammonium nitrate, Aluminum powder and Fuel oil residue. He then kneels and picks up a fragment of a twisted metal casing, holding it up to the light. His scanner identifies it instantly, a pressure cooker, Luke got one few weeks ago.

"Ammonium nitrate and fuel oil, a classic ANFO bomb," Batman said,"easy to make if you know what you're doing. They used a pressure cooker, using it as the containment vessel to increase explosive pressure. The bomb was designed for maximum shrapnel spread."

"But how did that cause such a huge explosion," Shazam asked

"Found it," John said as he flew to the back of the house,"propane tanks, they must've placed them and used a line to fill the house up with it."

"Wouldn't have Luke known if his house was filled with that," Flash asked,"given his super smelling?"

"They must've disguised it with something," Wonder Woman said

As they talked, Batman's Detective Mode was reconstructing the bomb's mechanism in real-time. The HUD projects a translucent 3D model showing: a cheap, modified electronic timer, traces of wiring suggest a small blasting cap and nails and ball bearings. Batman looked around as he saw multiple nails and ball bearings in the foundation, which was added for more destruction

"A simple timer detonator, whoever did this wasn't concerned with finesse," Batman said,"they wanted destruction and chaos."

"Any idea who we're dealing with, Bats," Flash asked him

Batman's jaw tightens, already having a good idea on who. He continues to scan, his eyes locking onto faint, nearly invisible footprints leading away from the blast site. His Detective Mode highlights traces of mud and ash, seeing multiple prints of the same boot pattern.

"The footprints are fresh," he said,"size 11, the pattern suggests military-grade boots, standard issue for paramilitary groups."

He follows the trail a few steps, stopping when his scanner picks up a small piece of fabric caught on a nail. He plucks it off and examines it.

"Kevlar weave," he said,"this wasn't a lone wolf, it's organized."

"So we're dealing with professionals," John said,"any sign of who they're working for? I know of a few paramilitary organizations here, both good and bad."

"Given the target and the method...this has The Cleansing Hand's signature all over it."

"...Son of a bitch."

Superman lands beside Batman, his eyes glinting with frustration.

"Did you get Luke to the hospital," Batman asked

"His in surgery, they're doing all they can," Superman said, his voice was hard and cold as steel,"I heard on my way here, so they targeted Luke because of his mutation."

"The Cleansing Hand, why have I heard of them," Captain Atom asked

"They're an Anti-Mutation Quirk group," John said,"they believe Mutation quirks are a threat to humanity and a defilement of Gods creation. Or to some they are freaks and need to be dealt with."

"And dealt with means," Shazam asked

"They're lynched a Mutation quirk family cause they looked like warthogs."

"They wanted to intimidate him, to drive him out or eliminate him," Batman said, his voice getting dangerously heavy,"but this wasn't just a warning. This was personal."

"Must be cause he won the Sports Festival," Cyborg said as he walked up,"I've been over the web, cause you can't hide anything there, and found that a lot of people say that Luke cheated or deserved to be disqualified cause he was a 'monster freak that needs to be put down', or more colorful words I am not saying."

"We're not going to let them get away with it, right," Flash asked,"Luke won fair and square, someone did this cause they can't act lime adults and get over it."

"We won't," Superman said,"this has gone too far, someone needs to answer ."

"What's the next move," Wonder Woman asked

"We track them down, we send a message of our own," Batman said as he clenches the fragment of the bomb casing in his hand,"they think they can scare people into submission, do whatever they want cause Luke ain't human to him, or no one will stand up for him."

Batman then looks at the JL, and for the first time ever, they were a little scared of the look Batman had

"Lets show just HOW WRONG they are," Batman said

Mustafa  Hospital, 3rd POV

Christina was sitting in the waiting room, her eyes red from the endless amounts of tears she had cried since learning of what happened to her baby nephew. She was planning to reveal to him she was gonna move to Japan and ask him to move in with her, be a family like she promised him. But now that was shattered as he was almost killed,

'ALL CAUSE A FUCKING QUIRK, THOSE BASTARDS ALMOST KILLED MY BABY CAUSE OF A FUCKING QURIK,' she yelled in her mind, sobbing to her hearts content

It was despicable, trying to kill a young boy, who never did anything wrong in his entire life, and all cause he had a Qurik that made him look like a crocodile. She wanted them dead, heads on pikes and ripping their guts with her bare hands if it means helping her baby. She was so focused on her mind she didn't notice multiple people walk in, almost filling the room up

"M-Mrs. James," Nejire said as she knelt in front of her

"N-Nejire," she said, flinching as she just noticed her, and the others,"you...you're all here."

The Big Three, classes 1-C, 1-A and B were all there, well minus Bakugo, Mineta and Monama, but no one cares. Itsuka wanted to come, cause even though her and her class hadn't spent much time with Luke, she wanted to check on him cause he treated 1-B as equals, like friends. So when 1-C was heard on going to the hospital, 1-A and 1-B quickly followed, to make sure their classmate and his family was okay

"We heard what happened," Mirio said as he walked up,"when we did, we all came rushing to give our support, and make sure Luke was okay."

"Yes, we are praying for Lukes recovery," Shiozaki said as she held Christina's hands,"do not worry, Luke is a strong boy, he will pull through."

"Luke is toughest among us," King Shark said,"Luke...my best friend."

"These cocksuckers," Oliver said as he clenched his hands,"whoever did it will pay."

"Ollie, nows not the time," Diana said as she held his hands,"right now we need to be here for Luke."

"Y-You're right, s-sorry."

"Trust me, we're all feeling the same," Rin said as he crossed his arms,"I remember the teachers saying Luke use to be discriminated for his Quirk, but an explosion?"

"Must because he won the Sports Festival," Shoji spoke up,"many people don't like it when a Mutation quirk user wins something they don't deserve."

"I'LL RIP THEIR SPINES OUT," Kirishima yelled,"they deserve to be buried in the ground!"

"Unofficially I don't disagree," Aizawa said as he walked in with All Might,"but as of now this is in Pros hands."

"Anything," Grodd asked them

"Batman radioed us in," AM said,"he and the JL will be here soon, but all I can say is he has suspects."

"Good to hear," Momo said as she looked down,"I...I wished we could have done more."

"We're only human Yaoyoruzu," Todoroki said, placing a hand on her shoulder,"we couldn't have predicted this, but we can help out as much as we can."

As they all talked, trying to find some way to help Luke and Christina, they heard a knock on the wall. They turned their heads to see Nezu, an American woman in a pan suit with a briefcase and a girl with dark colored skin. The students all stood up, as the woman looked around and saw Christina, who looked at them confused and wondered who they were

"Sorry for the interruption, but I believe this should be done," Nezu said as he walked in,"everyone meet Alexandria Novac, shes a lawyer from New Orleans."

"Hello, it's nice to meet you all," Alex said,"though I had hoped it would have been under better circumstances."

"Its nice to meet you, but umm why is a lawyer here," Aizawa asked, thinking this was an bad time

"Don't worry, I ain't here to serve anyone or anything," Alex cleared up, then held the girls hand,"it's actually about this little star here."

"Who is she," Isley asked

The little girl looked at the many faces looking at her, she was nervous, waiting for someone to curse her out for not speaking. But Alex held her hand and helped her get close to Christina, who looked at them and straighten up as they did. When they got close, Alex gestured to the girl to say something to her, so she quietly spoke up

"H-Hi," she said,"m-my name is Lily."

"Hello Lily," Christina said in her most gentle voice and smiled,"so Lily, why are you here?"

"...I-i j-just found out...L-Luke i-is m-my b-b-brother."

This caused many of the students to stay there froze, even Aizawa and All Might were shocked, they just stared in surprise. They all looked at one another and kept quiet, not wanting to scare the girl or cause a scene. So they just cleared out for a bit as Christina cried as she hugged the girl, who flinched as she has never been hugged before, but sinked into the hug

Both were crying heavily as the others watched from outside, waiting as then the JL walked in. They looked to see Christina and Lily were hugging and talking, both clearly getting comfortable with one another, and they turned to the others. They all just shrugged, but Nezu nodded as a sign he will fill them in later

"Anything from the scene," Patrick asked,"who did it?"

"Calm down O'Brian," Flash said,"we all understand you want answers, so just listen to Batman."

"We believe the anti-Mutation group The Cleansing Hand," Batman said,"they used a ANFO type explosive device and propane tanks, this is one of their usual tactics against their targets."

"They just do things when they want to scare people and kill if they think someone insulted," Aizawa said,"they wouldn't go out of their way to attack someone so well recognized, especially after the Sports Festival."

"We believe someone hired them to kill Luke," John said, getting gasps,"we don't know who yet, but we're investigating."

"Damn it," Sero said,"this is a pain in the ass."

"We know," Wonder Woman said,"but it's how we operate, just give us time to-."

"Excuse me, is Christina James here," a doctor with bat ears walked from the Operation Room

"I'm here," Christina said, jumping up from her seat,"is he okay!?"

"I think it's best we speak alone, family matters and such."

"Lady," Ben said as he walked up,"we are family, don't you see the resemblance?"

The doctor looked at the massive crowd before him, making him sigh as he knows they won't leave. So he decided to tell them anyway.

"We did all we could," he said,"we managed to remember a bunch of the metal shrapnel in him, pieces of wood and repair most of the damage."

"What do you mean most," Nezu asked

"Seems your friends Quirk is already repairing itself. So we did what we could like the regeneration took over, but I am glad to say...your nephew will be okay."

"S-So Luke w-won't d-die," Lily asked, she was gripping Christinas shirt

"No sweetheart, your big brother will be just fine. But we need some blood, he may be repairing, but he has lost a considerable amount of blood."

"We'll donate," the classes yelled, all pulling their sleeves us

"Thank you, now come on," the doctor said as he gestured them forward,"we'll start now, best we do it here since you're all here."

The students nodded and all moved in to donate blood, then it was only the JL, Nezu, Aizawa and AM. They were about to discuss what to so next...until the screens flashed on. Outside in the world, something was happening

The screens flicker and glitch on very TV, phone, tablet, and billboard across cities large and small suddenly turns to static. The chaos lasts only a moment before the static clears, replaced by a single image: a hooded figure wearing a sleek, futuristic tech mask that covers his face, the display pulsing with lines of digital code. His voice is distorted but calm, carrying a weight of purpose.

"Greetings world," he said,"I know I've interrupted your regularly scheduled programming, but this...this is important. My name is Webkiller,..and this goes out to the ones who are oppressed"

In the background, streams of binary code and shifting holographic symbols float, giving the impression of a virtual reality brought to life. The boy pauses for a moment, gathering his thoughts, his hands clamy as he took a deep breath, the digital lines on his mask glowing softly.

"I watched the UA Sports Festival, just like many of you. I saw the fights, the skills, the talents. But more importantly, I saw Luke—someone with a Mutation Quirk. A quirk that makes him different... like me. For once in my life, I didn't feel ashamed of my quirk. For once, I didn't see a monster or a freak....I saw strength. I saw someone who refused to be defined by how the world sees him.

And I know I'm not the only one who felt that."

He leans closer, his voice growing more intense.

"To everyone out there with Mutation Quirks... to everyone who's been bullied, beaten, and cast aside... to everyone who's been called a freak, a monster, or worse—I'm here to tell you, you're not alone. You're not broken. You're not less. And you're not wrong for being who you are."

The screens across the world now show brief flashes of faces, children, teenagers, adults, all with Mutation Quirks. A girl with scales being beaten, with bats, bricks and her clothes being torn off. A boy with horns was screaming as men sawed them off with blades. A woman with wings screamed as she had her wings ripped off by force from men in masks.

Their expressions range from sadness to determination, pain and agony covered their faces. The people in the audience were horrified, seeing this level of defilement was unseen in this day and age, the brutality made some throw up. Those with Mutation Quirks all stared in rage, anger was swelling up in them, wanting to make them pay

"They want you to hide. They want you to be afraid. But we are done hiding. We are done being afraid. Luke showed us that we can stand tall. Now it's time for us to rise."

The screens flicker briefly, and the boy's masked face fills the frame once more.

"There's one more thing. This message is for you, the police authorities and the JL, for those who will uphold the law for the ones who deserve it. I know you're looking for the people who tried to take Luke out. The group responsible is called The Cleansing Hand, but they're just pawns in a bigger game."

A series of coordinates appear on the screen, pulsing in red. Many of the police stations were already assembling, arming up with their gear and Heros, those who actually do this to help people, were coordinating with the police to strike at multiple targets.

Burnin and her sidekicks were already rounding Heros up, Sir Nighteye was speaking with multiple agencies to get to work. Nighteye knew of Luke, thanks to Mirio who spoke about the boy like he was a lifetime long friend, so he was gonna help the boy, plus...Luke made him laugh. Mirko was already scouting the area, her maniac grin never leaving her face

"These are their locations. Bases, safe houses, hideouts. You'll find them there. But the one who gave the order, the one who set this all in motion...is someone who walks among your precious heroes."

The coordinates fade, replaced by a single name in bold letters:

MONOMA NEITO

"Jealousy is a dangerous thing, isn't it? He couldn't stand the thought of someone like Luke outshining him. So he made sure to dim that light the only way he knew how."

The boy's voice lowers, filled with steely resolve.

"Heros,...please...bring them down. For Luke. For all of us, for those who have suffered the unjustice, the abuse and the wrong doing the people have endure for centuries."

The screen glitches once more, the digital mask's glow intensifying. The mask glowed brightly, the eyes of the mask staring into the camera, his voice heavy as he spoke with courage and determination

"To everyone watching—stand up, speak out, and fight back. The world is changing, and we're going to make sure it changes for the better."

"WHO THE HELL CARES, THEY'RE NOTHING BUT FREAKS," a man yelled, getting some cheers

They got him a face full of brick, making him yell in pain as he fell down, holding a massive bleeding broken nose. He and those who supported looked to see Shuichi holding a brick, behind him were a horde of Mutation Quirk users, all glaring death at them.

Webkiller raises his hand, a fist clenched in defiance. As many others who have been abused by others, all cause they looked different from others, all rose their fists with the boy

"Remember: they may try to silence us, but they can't stop us. Our time is now."

The screen fades to black, and in one last flash of code, his parting words appear:

"RISE, AND NEVER BACK DOWN."

As the screens returned to normal, the Heros, police and even some known vigilantes were already assembling to take the Cleansing Hand down. Batman and the JL were speaking with multiple agencies, but Superman noticed something. He heard a lot of footsteps going down the stairs, normally he play it off as people trying to leave

But the sounds of heavy footsteps, like say a humanoid shark and a gorilla, were very different. Superman was about to say something, but a look form Batman already told him he knew...and not to do anything

'Lets hope they don't go to overboard,' Superman said

Cleansing Hand Base, near the warehouses

"GOD DAMN IT," the leader yelled,"how, we made sure to cover our traces!"

"Fucking freak, he should have stayed out of our way," his CO said as he spoke with the other cells,"shit! Our other cells are getting attacked, some at random or all together, we can't make up a counter attack!"

"Fuck! All to kill that fucking freak for the brat! He should be glad his father is a supporter for us."

Suddenly soldiers began yelling a s the front door was seen being frozen and then exploded inward. The members of Class 1-C were seen standing in formation, their eyes all filled with rage, anger and fury. Oliver steps forward, pulling an arrow from his quiver as he glanced behind him.

"Alright everyone, let's show these assholes not to fuck with 1-Cs Class President," Oliver said,"non-lethal takedowns only, no killing! As much as I want to put a few arrows in them...Luke wouldn't want us to go to jail for him"

The group nods in unison, their resolve clear.

"For Luke," Harley said as she grabbed her mallet

"For Big Brother," Jinx said as her hand and eyes glowed

"For our friend," Snart said, his ice gun charging,"and for once, the plan didn't go off the rails."

"Just give it a minute," Doris said as she grew big

King Shark charges headfirst into a group of militants, his massive frame sending them scrambling. He swings his fist, knocking one enemy into a stack of crates. Another swings a baton, but King Shark catches it mid-swing and crushes it in his grip.

"You picked the wrong person to harm, tiny people," King Shark yelled

Beside him, Gorilla Grodd uses his immense strength and agility to leap into the fray. With a single hand, he picks up a militant and tosses him into a net trap laid by Cheetah, who dashes around the battlefield at blinding speed.

"Try keeping up, slowpokes" she taunts, knocking two operatives unconscious with spinning kicks,"tch, find the leader!

From a vantage point, Deadshot lines up his shots with pinpoint accuracy, rubber bullets taking down enemies who try to use ranged weapons.

"Non-lethal, huh," Floyd said,"takes the fun out of it, but I can manage for Luke."

Meanwhile, Captain Cold uses his cold gun to freeze the weapons of The Cleansing Hand operatives. A group of them charge toward him, but he slides on the ice he created, tripping them effortlessly.

"Cool off, would ya," he asked as he punched a soldier in the face

Above, Black Canary unleashes a perfectly timed sonic scream, disorienting a squad trying to flank the team. Green Arrow follows up by firing trick arrows, binding their legs with bolas.

"Got your back, Ollie," Dinah yelled as she kicked a soldier in the face

"Always do, Dinah," Oliver said as he fired another bow

Hitoshi Shinso steps into the fray, using his quirk to turn the tide.

"Why don't you all just stop fighting and sit down," he asked nonchalantly

The moment a militant responds, they freeze in place, completely under his control. He commands them to disarm and stay down, then used some zip ties he had to keep them from moving

"Works every time," he said

In the chaos, Plastic Man shifts into a spring-like shape, bouncing enemies into walls and twisting his body to disarm others. Soon as he did, he started wrapping a group of operatives in a stretchy prison.

"Rubber beats assholes every time," he quips

Barbara Gordon leads the tactical charge, coordinating movements through her communicator.

"Jinx, disrupt their comms," she yelled,"Harley, Joker, keep them distracted. Pamala, we need barriers!"

Jinx casts a wave of bad luck, causing The Cleansing Hand's suppression devices to short-circuit and their weapons to jam.

"Whoops, guess your gear's not as reliable as you thought," she said as he ran at them

Harley Quinn and Joker spring into action, creating chaos with their unpredictable fighting styles. Harley swings her mallet, knocking a weapon out of one operative's hands, while Joker tosses a smoke grenade laced with harmless laughing gas.

"A little laughter never hurt anyone," Joked yelled with a smile,"well, except your egos!"

"And a smash in the face for you," Harley yelled as she hits a soldier in the face,"and a hit in the nuts for you!"

She hits the soldier in the nuts, making the man howl in pain as he fell down, holing his destroyed jewels. Isley summons thick vines to block reinforcements, trapping them in place.

"Nature always wins, you're just fertilizer," Isley said

David dives into the action with his hydrodynamic suit, using precision blasts of water to knock back operatives attempting to regroup. Reverse Flash zips through the battlefield, stealing weapons from The Cleansing Hand operatives before they can react. Both stood by each other and admired their handy work

"You picked the wrong day to mess with 1-C," David said

"It feels good beating up assholes huh," Thawne asked, both chuckling

Ben showcases his martial arts prowess, taking down enemies with calculated strikes and leaving no room for retaliation. He kicked one in the face as he punched a soldier with his reinforced claws, clawing his face and then slides top the right to sweep another from the leg.

"This is how you fight with skill, not hate," Ben asked

Finally Doris, in her towering Giganta form, stomps down to block the enemy's retreat. She then grabbed a semi truck and tossed it to the side, making the rest of the Cleansing Hand have no way out of there

"Going somewhere," she asked mockingly,"yeah, I don't think so assholes."

As the last few members of The Cleansing Hand attempt to regroup, Catwoman flips into the center of their formation, her whip snapping weapons out of their hands. She caught ones gun and yanked it, then jumped and split kicks two and rolled to the floor, then high kicks the one she took the gun from

"Looks like the cat caught her prey," she said with a smile

Soon the class had wrapped the last of the soldiers, tying the, up with rope or whatever they could use. The leader, who tried to ran, was hanging upside town in the middle of the warehouse, thrashing and struggling to break free

"LET ME GO FREAKS," he yelled,"YOU HAVE NO RIGHT!"

"Shut the hell up," Snart said as he hits the leader with the butt of his Freeze Gun,"you deserved this the moment you planted the bomb at our best friends house, almost killing him."

"So what, we were doing the world a favor killing that monster! He deserves it for cheating at the Sports Festival, he shouldn't have entered for being a monster!"

"Can I eat him," King Shark asked, his mouth growling

"...Maybe."

Soon the authorities arrived, and then it all ended, with 1-C being gone way before anyone saw them.
